HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern you have not clearly mentioned the kind of stroke whether this is cerebral stroke or cardiac stroke, in either conditions the prognosis is depends upon the damage done if the damage is very minimal then the chances of recovery is excellent, if the damage is severer then the prognosis is bad, still the nursing care is matter, hope this information helps you, have a nice day.
